Chapter 61 A huge sum of money
When the ten-pound Tai Sui was placed on the table, Mrs. Shen didn't care that she didn't have much strength at the moment, so she was helped out of bed and walked to the table to study it carefully.
The maids and women in the room were also extremely curious, staring at the big white mass, and some of the brave ones even poked it with their hands.
Chen Yuezhi was afraid that Mrs. Shen wouldn't recognize him, so she said, "Madam, you can ask someone to go to the city and invite a doctor to come over."
Mrs. Shen waved her hand: "No need, the doctors in this city may not be as knowledgeable as me."
As she said that, she smiled: "My father is an imperial physician. I have seen all the rare medicinal materials in the world as long as they really exist."
Chen Yuezhi felt a little weak, but she didn't expect that she would meet the imperial doctor.
It would be really embarrassing if her little medical skills were discovered.
After Mrs. Shen studied the Tai Sui for a long time, she stood up and said: "This is indeed Tai Sui, and it is in excellent condition. It is just a little small. If it were bigger, it would really sell for a sky-high price."
Jiang Wan was a little regretful. She had been pouring in superpowers for the past two days, but this thing just didn't grow very well. After two days of continuous superpowers, it only grew about a kilogram.
Is it possible that such a genius is so easy to come by that its growth rate is extremely slow, so even if it is spawned with supernatural powers, no obvious effect can be seen?
For example, that wild ginseng, she also poured all the super powers into it at that time, and it only grew a little bit.
At present, this is the only explanation that is most reliable.
Mrs. Shen was also a cheerful person and asked directly: "How much money do you want to sell this Tai Sui for?"
This really stopped Chen Yuezhi from asking. She never dreamed that she would dig up such a treasure, so she knew nothing about the price of Tai Sui.
Jiang Wan thought for a while and said: "Madam, to be honest, we don't know what to buy. Since Madam knows the goods, let's ask Madam to give us a price."
Mrs. Shen smiled and said: "I plan to buy it myself, aren't you afraid that I will give you a low price?"
Jiang Wandao: "This thing was originally dug up by us accidentally. It belongs to us for free. No matter how much money we sell it for, we will not lose money."
Mrs. Shen felt that this little girl was really as big as a kid, so she smiled and said, "You kid, you are so transparent."
As she said that, she looked at Chen Yuezhi again: "Doctor, let me tell you the truth. If this Tai Sui was placed in previous years, it would definitely sell for a very high price. But in this world... I can only give you half of it. Although the price is a bit low, it is definitely more cost-effective than selling it yourself."
"One thousand taels, do you think that's okay?"
Chen Yuezhi felt that this price was acceptable. She was about to nod when she heard Jiang Wan say: "One thousand taels, plus road guidance for our family of seven!"
Mrs. Shen was stunned: "Lu Yin?"
Jiang Wan nodded: "Yes, Luyin. The magistrate of our county ran away with his family a long time ago, so our family of seven couldn't get Luyin. We couldn't enter the city yesterday because of this. Our whole family is Good people, if there is no road guide, you will be in constant trouble when you get to Jiangnan, and you may even be expelled as a refugee. So can you trouble Madam to help us solve the problem of the road guide? "
The issue of road guides is really not a big deal for powerful people. But for ordinary people like them, it is of great importance. Without road guides, it will be a big problem for their family to settle down in the future.
She didn't know whether she would lose the Tai Sui thousand taels of silver, but with such a condition, she believed that Mrs. Shen still got an advantage.
Mrs. Shen thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll take over this matter. I'll guide the way in at most two days."
Her husband's family is not ordinary people, and they want to make some road signs, which is to say hello to the local government office.
After saying that, she asked again: "For the one thousand taels of silver, do you want cash or banknotes?"
Jiang Wan thought for a moment: "Can it be exchanged for fifty taels of cash and the other nine hundred and fifty taels discounted into gold?"
The Daliang Dynasty may be finished one day. Silver notes are not safe. But carrying a thousand taels of cash with you is indeed inconvenient. If you convert it into gold, it will not be so conspicuous.
Mrs. Shen smiled and looked at her carefully: "Who taught you this method?"
"Of course I thought of it myself."
"You are really smart."
Jiang Wan smiled: "Thank you, madam, for the compliment."
Soon, the fifty taels of silver requested by Jiang Wan, plus the gold at a discount of 950 taels, were delivered to Chen Yuezhi.
Mrs. Shen asked someone to send over the five ingots of silver she had prepared before, but Chen Yuezhi quickly declined.
Mrs. Shen said: "One yard equals one yard. That one thousand taels is what you got from selling Tai Sui. These fifty taels are the hard work you paid for saving our mother and son yesterday. If the doctor doesn't accept it, I will feel even more uneasy. I I don’t like to owe others favors.”
Who is willing to owe a favor to something that can be solved with money?
Chen Yuezhi understood what she meant, so she stopped refusing and accepted the five pieces of silver.
Back in her room, Chen Yuezhi looked at the gold and silver and couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing.
With this money, their family doesn't have to worry no matter where they go.
Jiang Pan was also very happy. He picked up Jiang Wan and threw her high, then caught her firmly: "My daughter, you are our family's lucky star!"
Jiang Wan screamed in fright, and then got excited: "Dad, throw it again, it's so fun!"
Jiang Pan immediately threw Jiang Wan high again.
There was a burst of laughter in the room.
After getting the money, Jiang Pan and Chen Yuezhi started planning. Although there were two carriages at home, it was still very inconvenient for seven people to have one carriage to pick up things. Especially when Su was pregnant. Chen Yuezhi felt that from a woman's point of view, Su would definitely prefer to stay with Erlang.
So she decided to buy another carriage to pull things, and the two carriages at home were specially used to pull people.
In addition, winter is about to begin, and the quilts and coats at home are all worn out from previous years and are too thin. Although the wealth is not exposed, the family cannot suffer because of this, so the quilts and coats must be adequately prepared.
I need to buy more food, and prepare some other things, such as water bladders and the like.
After making a list, the family of three packed up and went out.
Because Tongzhou City is located on an important road, it was a very prosperous place in the past. However, due to the current world situation, Tongzhou City is also in a state of depression. Many shops are closed and have signs for sale.
There are not many pedestrians on the street, and everyone is in a hurry. Those shops that are open for business are also very vigilant. If there is any movement on the street, they will immediately close their doors to thank customers.
The family of three walked around for a long time before they bought all the things they wanted, leaving only twenty taels of one hundred cash coins left.
Eighty taels of silver, of which fifty taels were spent on carriages. Thirty jins of cotton cost five taels. Two stones of grain cost fifteen taels. The remaining ten taels were spent on other things.
Returning to the inn with her things, Chen Yuezhi felt distressed, "Not to mention the carriage, the pile of things in the future would only cost six or seven taels of silver at most, but now it costs thirty taels! These profiteers!"
Thirty taels of silver might not be enough for a banker to save in two or three years. And the carriage, in the past, could only cost thirty or forty taels of silver at most.
As he was talking, there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Pan stood up and opened the door, only to see Mrs. Shen's bodyguard standing outside the door, "This is the road guide for your home. It has been taken care of, but it must be put away."
"In addition, our wife has decided to leave early tomorrow morning. I heard that you are also going to Jiangnan. Let me ask you if you want to come with us?"
